He will be with the team against the Thunder tonight. Lee probably won't have much fantasy value, but this move doesn't bode well for the outlook of Tony Wroten (knee) and Alexey Shved (hip). Fri, Dec 5, 2014 04:00:00 PM

He had a chance to compete for minutes, but the ankle injury may have cost him. Lee will likely wind up overseas. Sat, Oct 25, 2014 06:47:00 PM

Malcolm Lee (ankle) will not play against the Nets on Monday.

He was on his way to his biggest game before spraining his ankle in his 10th minute of action on Saturday. Lee could wind up making the team, but that has a lot to do with how the 76ers handle the Jason Richardson situation. Mon, Oct 20, 2014 12:11:00 PM

The 76ers may provide an updated timetable in the coming weeks, but Wroten is out for the season and is questionable for the start of the 2015-16 season. Wroten will earn a guaranteed $2.2 million in Philadelphia next year, and if all goes well he could land a lucrative deal in restricted free agency prior to the 2016-17 season. His absence has guaranteed unlimited touches for Michael Carter-Williams, while opening up minutes for guys like JaKarr Sampson, K.J. McDaniels and Jerami Grant.

Robert Covington (elbow) and Jason Richardson (rest) will not play Monday against the Raptors.

The 76ers are going to start Isaiah Canaan, JaKarr Sampson, Luc Mbah a Moute, Nerlens Noel and Henry Sims in a bigger lineup. As for Covington, he has a shot to play Wednesday and his elbow injury doesn't sound severe. That said, his owners will probably want to bench him given how he hasn't played well. To be clear, he should be owned in all leagues. Jerami Grant and Hollis Thompson benefit more than Sampson does for most fantasy owners.

Head coach Brett Brown said it would be misleading to say anything promising about Embiid playing this season.

This all but assures what we already knew, and the 76ers have no reason to risk his health as they continue to rebuild towards the future. Embiid is loaded with potential, but there is no question that he carries a lot of injury risk. Outside of keeper leagues, Embiid can be left on the wire.
